San Antonio On July 15, the United States Bowling Congress cancelled all remaining national events for 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the Open Championships in Reno, Nevada. The Open Championships which include four straight months of bowling competition is the worlds largest participatory sporting event. With the cancellation some local bowlers will see impressive Championships attendance streaks come to an end. So, I mean it was really, really disappointing.The Open Championships were initially postponed to the fall before they were ultimately cancelled. A big portion of their income comes from that bowling tournament, said 1995 Long Island Bowling Hall of Fame inductee and San Antonio native, Phil Cardinale.
